• The Earth's axial tilt causes the variation in daylight hours and the changing of the seasons.
• The tilt is approximately 23.5 degrees relative to the Earth's orbital plane around the Sun.
• As Earth orbits the Sun, the axial tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year, resulting in the seasons.
• On June 21st, the Northern Hemisphere experiences the summer solstice, which is the longest day and shortest night of the year.
• This occurs because the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun, and as a result, the Sun appears at its highest point in the sky at solar noon.

• This occurs because the South Pole is tilted away from the Sun.
• As a result, the Sun appears lower in the sky, leading to fewer daylight hours and colder temperatures.

So, on June 21st in the Southern Hemisphere, the correct statement is: Shortest day and longest night
